I'm going to have to drop something; probably Sheena, as I need a Surfer and Dark is overlapping with Ghost coverage-wise. If someone wants Sheena, feel free to shoot me a VM, I don't mind just giving her away.

Man, I played for 12 hours straight. Lining up for the games was really easy. Anyway, after 2 hours after I bought my games, I went back and saw so much people trading and mingling with each other. I really love that sense of togetherness and mutual love of Pokemon. <3

I said I would go to the Gym next, but it didn't happen. Outside of the Gym, I met a girl who told me about Roller Skating and she would gave me a pair of Roller Skates if I could beat her in battle. I beat her and got them, really nice since they are super fast, like Running Shoes 2.0 except for the fact that they can't be used in tall grass or inside buildings, but that's not a problem as I have the usual Running Shoes for that. Anyway, after beating her, I headed out to Route 22 since it was possible to go here, I thought I might just see how far I could go. I battled one trainer and captured Psyduck, Riolu, Dunsprace, maybe something more I can't remember and most importantly, a Litleo, which will be the second member of my team. I wanted a Male but couldn't find one so I settled for a Female with Rivalry instead. I went back to Route 2 and trained Litleo a bit in order to make it stronger. Then I went back to Route 22 and battled all trainers I could battle there and picked up a few items. I found the entrance to Victory Road but couldn't enter since I don't have a single badge yet, and there was another path leading somewhere which I couldn't get to yet either. But it hardly matters, I know that I'm not good enough yet and there will be time for it later. I headed back to Route 22, will train Litleo a bit more before challenging the Gym.

So, I'm now at Santalune Pokémon, after making it through Santalune Forest and catching some Pokémon. I now have a Fletchling, a Pidgey, a Scatterbug, a Weedle and a Pansage in addition to my Fennekin. And now I've picked up my Torchic from the Delivery Lady. Shame I can't nickname him, but oh well, since I do have Nova (my Fennekin) I wasn't planning on using it on my main team anyways.

I'm between Gyms 7 & 8, destroyed Team Flare and now battling Shauna on a bridge. She pulls out a Goodra Lv. 49 that uses Earthquake to wipe out my Lv. 62 Delphox, so I pull out my Lv. 54 Sligoo and beat it with Dragon Pulse. I suppose my next job is working out how to evolve Sligoo, because it obviously isn't by leveling up!

Alright guys, I got my game finally. I just started up. Befor I go any further I want to say this game so far looks and sounds beautiful. Better than I expected. I got X, so that intro of Xerneas was so beautiful. The intro was good itself to. Cute how they matched the jumping to the symbol crashes.

- Named myself Sam and picked the boy, as per usual. I decided with just normal looking Calem. I wanted to name him that bur seeing as how i'm going to be sharing this with all my friends I needed a way to differentiate myself.
- Fletchling ow, that hurt.
- Gotta say the house looks snazzy. Much better than most starter houses.
- After meeting Serena and Shauwna I roamed around, standard first town business, everyone just talked about tutorials and the like. No items to speak of. Guess it's off to route 1 then.
- Well that was the shortest distance to a town i've ever seen.
- Awesome music when you pick your Pokemon! I'm probably going to have to buy this soundtrack.
- Hee hee, a nickname. Totally picked S-Mister
- ALRIGHT First Pokemon time! I picked Fennikin, as I knew I would. My Fennikin is female [yay] and I named her Din, after the goddess of fire herself.
- Got the Pokedex to, this game starts out really fast, it's rather nice.
- A letter to deliver, oh great. Next thing you know people are gunna start calling me Phillip J. Fry.

Now that I got out of that cutscene here are my stats for Fennikin:
- Din, Female, lvl 5
- Bashfull nature [meh, at least it's not something negative.]
- HP: 19
- Atk: 9
- Def: 9
- SpAtk: 12
- SpDef: 11
- Spd: 12
Apparently she's often lost in thought.[If anyone can find the IV's Or knows how to find them that would be awesome. I've tried calculators but you need the species.]

- Well, just as I almost left, I should have seen the rival battle incoming. At first glance the battles look awesome, and the music is so good.
- Mom sure does look all excited. Its so cool to see that mom has her own Pokemon to.
- Got a potion from the dude who obviously looked like he ran the mart.
- Also picked up 10 Pokeballs plus the free premier ball, just in case. If I hit a shiny this will be my first one EVER in ANY Pokemon game.
- Time to set off into the great unknown of Kalos. Wish me luck!
